Harbor Freight Torque Wrenches
09/21/13 at 11:01:04

Well, I've always been a fan of needle torque wrenches, but after using clickers in the Air Force for over 20 years I got kinda used to hearing the clickin', so I bought me a pair of them from Harbor Frieght.

They are on sale for only $19 bucks and I got a promo email that knocked $4 off, so I only ended up paying about $42 bucks shipped to the house.

Just thought I'd pass it on if anyone is interested, and yes they are made in Tiawan, took me awhile to find the print, but it is there. I will be checking them against my needle torq. wrenches on occasion.

It was $ 112 ,almost 1 1/2 weeks take home pay. Have 2 Snap-On clickers that cost me over $700 for the pair. Prices sure have changed. Think I would check the accuracy though.

I paid $800.00 for a Snap On box in 85. Today, I can get a bigger box, with roller bearings for less than 1/2 of that. KObalt & stuff atHF. Looks like every bit as good as Snap On quality,
